Peterborough City Council are to apply for a permanent 40 mph speed limit along the North Bank. The temporary measure was brought in after much lobbying by the action groups, residents and councillors. Six accidents occurred in a space of six days during November/December 2013. A new safety barrier was put in place on one of the dangerous bends. Speed has played a great part in these accidents, today I publish a motorcycle and a car overtaking me both doing well in excess of 40 mph as my in car camera recorded.
